- Delete - obscure food. Bearian (talk) 21:46, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Searches of "Funing cake" and of the Chinese name, 阜宁大糕 , do turn up a few slightly informative English-language hits in non-reliable sources (e.g. [1]) as well as quite a few images of the product[2] and a ton of Google results in Chinese[3]. Maybe a Chinese-reading editor can find something usable in there; otherwise, I'd have to concur with deletion. --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:39, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- A ton of Chinese refs sounds like this could easily pas GNG. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:24, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep
per WP:IARPasses WP:GNG (See my comment below). The cake has historical relevance. Better to WP:PRESERVE and improve the article. Northamerica1000(talk) 11:28, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Revised my !vote above, per sources in my comment below. Northamerica1000(talk) 04:44, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per the sources found by Arxiloxos. Clearly a food that is not so obscure if you have read any sources about Chinese foods. Steven Walling • talk 23:06, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: Here I can just see some manky pics and for this a translation is necessary in order to evaluate it. These sources does not show, that article meets WP:N. Bearian might be right. -- Dewritech (talk) 10:29, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
